Max found his thumb

In the last couple of weeks Max has gone from sucking on one or both hands to now mostly just sucking on his thumb. We think it's so cute.

He had his 4 month check up on Monday and everything looks good. He's up to 13 lbs. 10 oz. and 25.5" long. It's amazing how fast he is growing and to see all of the changes. His coordination is getting a lot better and he's grasping toys easily when they are held in front of him.

Here are a couple pictures of him enjoying his newly found thumb.

Hope you enjoyed them.

Love, Erik, Tara & Baby Max

A Max update

No pictures in this post, just an update. Max rolled over for the first time yesterday! His mom and dad were so excited but he really didn't think it was a big deal. He rolled over 4 times in total yesterday and today he's an expert. We're now working on rolling from his back to his tummy. We'll try to get a video of it with the webcam as soon as we can. Talk to you all soon.

Love, Erik, Tara and The Roller Max

Max, Mommy & Daddy

Here are a few pictures of Max with his proud parents.

Love as always, Erik, Tara and Max Ryan

Hanging out in the grass

This weekend was really nice weather wise for once and we took advantage of it by getting some yard work done and Max wanted to hang out with us outside. He loved feeling the grass, and he really enjoys being outside which we are grateful for.

We were able to get a few pictures of him in his new (used from his cousin Brody) Bumbo seat. He likes to sit in it for short amounts of time and it works well for pictures too.

Max wanted us to tell his Uncle Matt and Aunt Nichole thanks for the Cubs shirt, and that he loves wearing it!

Hey Mom look at the red crab over there...

HAHAHA, Dad she fell for it!!

HAHAHA....oh man I kill me.

After the time in his Bumbo seat we all just hung out for a while and Max played under his butterfly. He's just the cutest!

Thanks for looking!

Love, Erik, Tara and Baby Max

Trip to the Zoo

We took a trip to the Zoo on Memorial day and it was a lot of fun. Max slept through the Australia area but soon awoke as we neared the lions & monkeys. He had a great time hanging out in his Baby Bjorn and looking at all the animals. Here are a couple of pictures from the day.
